Hello! I'm Sherry- After going through a few big life changes (moved to San Diego, got married, back in school to switch careers/getting teaching credential & Masters)- I decided to throw down the gauntlet and move towards one of the most important goals on 'my list'...get healthy for ME.

I figure that it's now or never to get my butt back in shape! No excuses. No more putting this off until 'tomorrow.'.Let's DO this. :D

Hello! I'm Sherry- After going through a few big life changes (moved to San Diego, got married, back in school to switch careers/getting teaching credential & Masters)- I decided to throw down the gauntlet and move towards one of the most important goals on 'my list'...get healthy for ME.

I used to be pretty athletic back in the day & somehow I fell out of sync with myself. The next thing I know- BAM- I'm needing to drop a significant amount of weight. Honestly, it's not about the weight or the number on the scale...that doesn't bother me. It's about not being healthy & active that's killing me, literally. I would like to get back up to being able to run several miles without blinking an eye...scramble up a steep hiking trail without having to take several breaks on the way to catch my breath...and kayaking for hours without my arms wanting to break off (let alone being okay in a swimsuit in public!).

San Diego is a gorgeous city and there are TONS of outdoor things to do and fantastic weather to encourage me.

I hope you can join us for the San Diego Hat Hike (Walk at Lake Miramar) on Saturday, June 11th, 2011, at 10 a.m.! It would be great to see you! All of the details are on SparkAmerica.. Please be sure to RSVP there, even if it's no. :)

Hey! Just saw that you joined the 28 Day Challenge too! yey!! I did the Day 1 video tonight. I'm sad to say that it was kinda tough after a week of not moving too much. Blah, dumb cold . Anyways, I'm ready to get back to it!

The soup was...odd. Not bad, but different. Next time I will use less spinach, more beans and MUCH less garlic. And maybe more carrots...

I haven't added any yoga yet, but this week I am aiming to get in at least three ST work outs and stretching, if not official yoga, at least four or five times. I am also trying to stretch my calves several times a day.
